About

An incredible conversion rate, particularly in ODIs saw Quinton de Kock's reputation sky-rocket at a very young age. An opening batsman and a solid wicket-keeper, his good form for the Highveld Lions saw him picked for the national team in the 2012-13 home season.

In 2013-14, he scored three consecutive ODI centuries, becoming only the fourth player to do so. He already had 4 ODI centuries before his 21st birthday and was only the second player to hold that feat! He's widely regarded to be in the top bracket of wicket-keeper batsmen in the country, while drawing comparisons with the legendary Adam Gilchrist for his ability to explode as an opener in Limited overs cricket as well as do a job down the order in Test matches.

He already has 13 ODI centuries and looks destined to notch up many more! Being a left hander, he possesses the natural grace and ability to play the drives and cuts to backward point that every southpaw is bestowed with! He has previously played for SRH and DD with mixed success. He has a ton to show at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in 2016 and now has made the ground his home after RCB purchased him ahead of the VIVO IPL 2018!
